Code Violation Lists

[Octavia White]

Hi BP,

Does anyone know the best way to obtain a list of homes that have code violations? I live in Central FL, I checked the city and county websites, it appears that you need to have the address for each property to review the violation. Is there any way to get a full list so that you can set up a marketing campaign to target those homeowners?

Thank you,

In Texas, you can do an "open records request" for all code enforcement violations from a specific city, or say violations over a certain date range (01/01/15 to 02/01/15). If you are in Orlando - I'd imagine you'd send it to the code enforcement office there (but call their city offices to confirm that)

Here's an example open records request doc, for the state of Florida
